Chapter 74 Choosing a Mentor(1/2)

After returning to the dormitory, Zhuoyue sat at the desk and pondered.

After a while, he turned on his computer, entered the master's admissions page of the Massachusetts official website, and found the contact information for the tutors that the School of Physics could choose.

Zhuoyue received an admission notice from Massachusetts more than a month ago, but he has not chosen a tutor for a long time, so the admission notice has not been sent to him.

During this period, Massachusetts urged him several times, but Zhuoyue has been busy with other things, so he put the matter of choosing a mentor aside.

It was not until now that he graduated, and after discussing with his teacher, principal and Mr. Fang, he straightened out his development ideas for going to Massachusetts.

There are thirty-five mentors, who study both theoretical physics and applied physics.

In fact, there are very few people who truly study pure theoretical physics, most of them study theoretical physics and applied physics.

Europe, the United States and other countries pay great attention to theoretical science, so there are many scientists who study theoretical physics, and apply physics to research.

Modern physics research is mainly divided into four fields, namely condensed matter physics, atoms, molecules and optical physics, high-energy particle physics and astrophysics.

Five of the thirty-five professors from the Massachusetts School of Research Biology study condensed matter physics, ten of them study atoms, molecules and optical physics, five of them study high-energy particle physics, and fifteen of them study astrophysics.

Modern physics and physics that are visible to the naked eye have been studied thoroughly, and only the microscopic world physics and astrophysics are still in the world to be developed.

Among them, with the development of science and technology, in-depth research has only begun in recent decades.

The key is that the universe is vast and boundless, with stars and stars. The galaxies are as complex as ravines, and the latitude space is overlapping.

Therefore, there are countless things to study in the universe, which makes it easier for astrophysics to achieve results.

In recent years, most Nobel Prize winners in physics have won awards for studying astrophysics.

Therefore, the most people are studying astrophysics now.

Zhuoyue said: "Condensed matter physics can be abandoned, it is the physical basis of new materials, new devices and new processes."

"If you study some materials, it will be more troublesome in America."

“Atoms, molecules and optical physics can also be abandoned, and it plays an important role in energy, materials, environment, medicine and life sciences, and defense research.”

"This is not in line with my original intention!"

"High-energy particle physics must also be given up. It relies too much on equipment such as high-energy accelerators. If I learn this, I will be useless after returning to China. After all, China does not have advanced high-energy accelerators, and the high-energy accelerator in Kyoto is still an old antique from the last century."

"So, in the end, only astrophysics is left to choose from."

"It's better to choose astrophysics. Many things in astrophysics are illusory, including both application and theoretical physics."

"And almost all theories of physics are available to astrophysics."

"For example, mechanics, electromagnetics, statistics, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, relativity and gravitational fields."

"Choose astrophysics and learn more physics knowledge, which is very helpful for my future development."

In fact, there is another consideration. The system first asked him to study fluid mechanics, and then began to study electromagnetic field theory.

Fluid mechanics and electromagnetic field theory are completely different fields. He guessed that there may be research in different fields from these two fields in the future.

Therefore, choosing astrophysics will also be of great help to the scientific research that the system can do in the future.

Astrophysics includes countless branches of disciplines, and the 15 professors who study astrophysics are hesitant.

These fifteen professors are mainly studying mechanics, electromagnetics, statistics, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, relativity and gravitational fields.

Of course, they mainly study a certain field of physics and have certain research on other fields of physics.

"Professor Fermi is very familiar with me, but unfortunately he studies fluid mechanics."

"Just choose a professor who studies electromagnetics!"

What the system now asks him to deduce is the theoretical knowledge of electromagnetic field theory. Since this is the case, he chose a professor who studies electromagnetic science at this time, which will be of some help to him in studying electromagnetic field theory.

"Let's choose this professor named Soba, who won the Nobel Prize ten years ago for discovering the quantitative structure of weak electroplating interactions."

"He is just right for me!"

After saying that, he wrote an email to Soba, and then he entered a long wait.

America, in a rural manor!

Soba is a man in his sixties, with a sturdy figure and slightly curly hair like a golden lion king. After getting up early in the morning, he walked out of the house, naked, wearing shorts, and jumped into the swimming pool in the manor with a thud.

After swimming a few laps, I climbed out of the swimming pool with many splashes.

His wife handed him a bath towel, and he wiped his hair, put on a bath towel, walked barefoot into the house to change clothes, and then had breakfast.

After breakfast, he entered the study, turned on the computer, and checked the email.

"Hmm?" Suddenly his eyes lit up, he opened the email, and said in surprise after reading it: "Zoeuo actually asked me to be his teacher."

"Haha..." he laughed and said, "If the old guy Fermi knew about this, he would definitely be angry to death. He had long said that he would accept Zhuoyue as a student."

His eyes flashed, and he sent Zhuoyue an email, arranging the time for the two to have a video call.

Before choosing a graduate teacher, you must have an interview with the teacher to communicate with each other and want to understand each other's own ideas.

Soba was very curious about why Zhuoyue chose him instead of Fermi.

Excellence is the study of n-s equations in the international theoretical physics competition and is the basis of fluid mechanics. Later, the boundary layer equation was published at the International Physics Conference, which is the knowledge of fluid mechanics.

It is obvious that excellence is the study of fluid mechanics. If that is the case, Fermi should be chosen instead of him.

Zhuoyue has been waiting for Soba's emails, and he knew it the first time he sent the emails.

Afterwards, they opened the email and read it. The two agreed to have a video call at 8 am in the morning and 8 pm in the United States on the next day.

The next day, at 8 o'clock, the two started a video call.

"Hello, Professor Soba!" Zhuoyue smiled at Soba on the computer screen.

"Hello, Excellent, I'm glad to see you." Soba smiled and said, "I want to know why you chose me as your teacher."

"I have always been very interested in astrophysics, and astrophysics is all-encompassing. I want to learn more, so I chose astrophysics."

"I am studying electromagnetics, and you have been studying fluid mechanics, which are also included in astrophysics. Why don't you insist on continuing to study fluid mechanics?"

"I used to study fluid mechanics, but I'm also very interested in electromagnetics. I'm still young and I want to learn more."

Soba smiled and shook her head, "I thought the same as you when I was young, but physics is broad and profound. Physics knowledge in any field can make people study it for a lifetime. Since you have studied fluid mechanics, there is no need to study other physics fields."

"Professor Soba, you are right, but there is a saying in our China that you can't help but not suppress your body. It means that learning one more skill is not harmful."

"Fluid mechanics can help me study it for a lifetime, but I am more interested in electromagnetics now, so I came to learn electromagnetics."

Excellent pause, feeling that this answer would leave a bad idea in Soba's mind, he said: "And electromagnetics can be studied in combination with fluid mechanics."

"So that's how you think!" Soba suddenly realized that the outstanding answer just now really made him unhappy, thinking that he was arrogant, but the following sentence relieved his doubts.

Electromagnetics can indeed be combined with fluid mechanics to study, which is called electromagnetic fluid mechanics.

"According to regulations, you have a master's degree in one year and a doctorate in one year. During the master's degree, I will teach you electromagnetics, and I will also teach you other fields of knowledge."

Although he studies electromagnetics, it does not mean that he does not know other fields.

As a Nobel Prize winner in physics, you must understand any field of physics.

"Okay, professor!"

Zhuoyue let out a long sigh in his heart and finally fooled him.

"The study time is twelve months. I will teach you theoretical knowledge in the first three months, and I will take you to do some research on the subject in the next nine months."

"Since you have learned three years of knowledge from others in a year, my teaching speed will be very fast and your learning speed will also keep up. That's fine!"

"no problem."

"I will ask the school to send your admission letter to you within a week, and on August 30, you come to the school to report."

"Okay, professor!"

"Okay, that's it. Goodbye, I'll wait for you in Massachusetts."

"Goodbye, professor!"

Soon the two hung up the video call.

After Soba hung up the video call, he took out the phone and called Fermi.

"Soba, aren't you, an old guy, on vacation? Why are you interested in calling me?" The phone was quickly answered, and Fermi's voice came from the phone.

"Haha..." Soba laughed and said, "Fermi, tell you good news and bad news, which one do you want to listen to first?"

"Bad news first!"

“The bad news is that excellence cannot be your student.”

"What?" A banging sound came from the phone, and a moment later, Fermi's voice came, "What did you mean by what you just said?"

"Don't you understand yet? Zhuoyue chose someone else as a teacher."

"who?"

"This is also the good news I want to say. He chose me as a teacher."

Fermi: "…"

“Dududu…”
